THE ANCIENT CITY OF ANTIOCH ON THE MAEANDER

Abstract

The Ancient city of Antiochon the Maeander which was situated at the confluence of the Morsynos (Dandalaz) river and the Maiandros (Menderes) river is one of the least studied ancient city of the  region. Antioch controls the Great Eastern Trade Road as the so-called Southern Road by some scholars and the bridge over the Maeander River which was passing by the Trade Road. The city also controls the junction of the main road and the side road which connects Maeander Valley with TabaeValley passing through Aphrodisias. Because of the lack of systematical archeological studies, the information about the history of the ancient city is based on numismatic, epigraphic evidences and the data provided by medieval chroniclers. Nonetheless, the surface remains like stadion which shows the function of the building and also the other wall remains whose function is couldn’t understood yet demonstrates the existence of an important Roman city in this area. The information about the city from Byzantine Period is much more than the other periods thus the most important structures of the city are defense walls surrounding inhabited area. These walls which are still the most important structures on the land consist four different construction periods from the early 7th century A.D. to the end of 13th century A.D. The last of the three largest and the most important battles, Antioch War (1211) between Seljuks and the Byzantine Empire, during the Turkish settlement in Anatolia was happened in the territory of the city.
